Hi again, I’m Agent Equellus, the daughter of Mr. Ben! Today’s another edition of Earthnaut Profiles, where we get to meet and know each of our little friends from Planet Engedi better. Today, I’m here with Professor Lagrange, the esteemed senior member of the Earthnaut team and a dedicated historian/school-teacher among his people.
EQUELLUS: “Hi Professor! How are you today?”
? LAGRANGE: “Very well, Agent Equellus! I’m doing well and I’m pleased to see the same thing about you!”
EQUELLUS: “So tell me about yourself! Who you are, what you do, and what led you to be an Earthnaut?”
? LAGRANGE: “I’m delighted to! I am the Dean of the Great Engedian Space Academy. I am also the keeper of the Planet Engedi’s archives and the Master Historian for the planet. About 20 Earth years ago, I formulated an idea to send some of our people to Planet Earth to not only explore it for scientific reasons, but to answer a wider question . . . WHO is the Great Imm Leader?”
EQUELLUS: “The Great Imm Leader? My Dad said that he spoke to you and Medallion about this.”
? LAGRANGE: “Yes. He is a Human like you, your Father, your siblings, and your mother Ms. Jessica. But what is incredible is that he is the ONLY Human to have ever visited our Planet Engedi . . . and without a ship! And he gave us an incredible responsibility.”
“For 25,000 years, the Engedian people have been the sworn caretakers of countless galaxies, star systems, stars, planets, and the great scientific phenomenon that you know in the skies. But for 7000 years, we have been the unseen protectors of the Human race and freed other Star Peoples from the Ahhn lord’s lies. Our people were a spacefaring race long before mankind was bioengineered by The Great Imm Leader.”
EQUELLUS: “So who is this Imm Leader? The only One we believe in that could create life is God.”
? LAGRANGE: “Very true. Union and Medallion’s joint historical and faith-system research concludes that this ‘God’ you speak of is the Great Imm Leader Himself! For over 4000 Earth-years, the Host of Imm, on behalf of their Leader, have requested our interaction to defend Earth from space-bourne threats and to also ensure the security of the Human lineage of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob!”
EQUELLUS: “I thought the angels did this. The Imm sound like the angels!”
? LAGRANGE: “I am getting to that soon. At select times in history, we stopped the Earth from rotating and one point moved the Earth back by 15° during the rule of some Israeli king named Hezekiah! The Imm Leader even had us design special instruments of gold to honor Him, including a special box for carrying stone tablets with His law for Israel to follow. That and a special jar filled with special bread that fell from the sky each night, and the staff of a great Israeli Oracle named Moses. On top of this box were two molded images Imm Guardians with their wings spread over it!”
EQUELLUS: “What? That describes the Ten Commandments and the Prophets! And the Ark of the Covenant! But it was the Jewish people that built it!”
? LAGRANGE: “Yes, they may have built the Ark, but WE engineered and designed it, including the golden lampstand that we helped burn for 8 days after the Jews repelled an evil Seleucid ruler!”
EQUELLUS: “This is unbelievable! So has He ever appeared to you Engedians?”
? MEDALLION: “Continuously! He once told us that he bioengineered humanity from the dust of the ground, but He created
? MEDALLION (continues): “The name of our people is “Engedians”, and our home is called “Engedi” the fresh fountain near the Dead Sea!” Also, Union had Medallion and I do some research and we found out that the names of the 22 houses of our people match the names of the Israeli alphabet called Hebrew!”
EQUELLUS: “Amazing! So you’re related to the Jews? You know that my brother, sister, Mom, and I all have distant Jewish ancestors, don’t you? Are you just on the Jewish human’s side?”
? MEDALLION <delighted laugh> “Congratulations on being Jewish, Dear Girl! As for “what side we’re on”, we are a race of peaceful explorers. Our job is to come to Earth and learn about the ways and development of Humans because they are the Imm Leader’s race and to protect ALL Humans on Earth from space-bourne destruction. We are on the side of all humans, all tribes, nations, tongues, races, and belief systems. Among them, those that will seek out what truth really is will understand what truly is right or not and it will draw them to the Great Imm Leader who is wise in all things.”
EQUELLUS: “I’m still interested in your connection to the Jewish people, being that you’re from another planet. Why do you think so many Jewish people write books and write/act in movies about aliens from outer space?”
? MEDALLION <thoughtful smile> “Oracle Medallion, Union, and I have researched this for some time. The answer? WE EXIST, and the Great Imm Leader (who is Jewish Himself) has impressed upon them this fact by instinct as certainly as birds fly north and south each year. What is clear is that Jewish people love us, . . . and WE LOVE THEM!!!”
? MEDALLION (continues): “As for your question on Angels, analysis of your text called the Bible and Jewish historical accounts conclude that the Host of Imm and Angels are the same! Recently at the Battle of Golan Heights, several of the US and Israeli flying forces saw three of them fly alongside them and Captain Echo in the IFS Thunder saucer.
? MEDALLION (continues): As for their significance, one of the Imm named Gabriel came to our Planet almost 2,800 Earth years ago and told us to pull back the nebula keeping our Planet’s brilliant Blue/White star hidden from Earth. They said the light would arrive at Earth 777 Sol-years later to allow some Wise Men in the East Earth Countries to see it and follow it to a small town where a Young Boy was born and growing.
EQUELLUS: “No! I . . . I think I know who this Little Boy now is . . . the Bible state that a prophet Isaiah stated that the Great Leader would be born there and he would be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace! What is the Imm Leader’s name?”
? MEDALLION: “He said his name is ‘Wonderful’? We’ve asked his name before throughout the ages, and His answer has always been ‘Why ask Me what it is, seeing that it is Wonderful?’ Agent Equellus, I believe you’ve confirmed the suspicion! And if so, He’s the reason for Christmas . . . and Haunakkah, Yom Kippur, and perhaps Easter!”
EQUELLUS: “Well I hope you like celebrating Christmas with us for that reason too! What message do you have for those on Earth who believe in the Great Imm Leader and how they act towards others who don’t know Him?”
? MEDALLION: “I would say let them who don’t believe yet know that you don’t dislike them. You need to do for yourselves what the Imm Leader wants YOU to do, but PLEASE don’t be upset at those who don’t believe. Remember, you’re not perfect any more or less than they, but you made the choice to believe. He desires to know ALL PEOPLE, and He knows that all people need to find the true Love and Peace that only He brings!”
EQUELLUS: “I like what you said! So one last thing, you were Union’s teacher, weren’t you?”
? MEDALLION: “Yes, but you see that he has quickly risen to become MY teacher! <laughter>. I was the defined Newtonian Professor of Engedi with 44 doctorates until Union succeeded me with 56 doctorates, and he’s working on his 57th right now! For an Engedian teacher, it’s a great honor to see at least one or more of his/her students surpass them. It is not one I expected to see in my journey in the Pre-Celestial. I concurred with the Quorum of Lesser Elders in electing him as Elder of Sol. Despite his young age, he is an absolute MASTER at his duties, being the Earthnaut Expeditionary Chief and Researcher. You really need to talk to him more about this!”
EQUELLUS: “So tell me <smiling>, what do you think of him and Oceana seeing each other??”
? MEDALLION: “<Hearty laughter> I knew something was up the night we informed him he was elected Elder of Sol. What I greatly appreciate is that, before he told her his feelings, he came to me and the Grand Elder to make sure there was no conflict of interest given that he was her doctorate advisor. After hearty laugh and reassuring smiles, both of us assured him there was no problem at all given that she was so far along in her botany program. I could not be more pleased, and I believe Oceana will bring a great balance and reassurance to his duties. I still love the story about how he saved her and her botany classmates at the Battle of Sirius and became a great hero besides being a literal ‘One Man University'” he’s already renowned for.”
EQUELLUS: “Well, thank you Professor Lagrange. We should talk more about Planet Engedi, Israel, the Great Imm Leader, and other great things!”
? MEDALLION: “You’re welcome, Dear Girl! As for Great Imm Leader celebrations like Christmas, I heard that Miss Jessica has made some of these delightful cinnamon rolls”.
EQUELLUS: “Ok, let’s go!”
